F(x) = x2 − 2x how would i factor this?

The only way to factor an equation such as this is by pulling out the greatest common factor. When we look at what is the largest term in both of these, we discover both have an x, but nothing else. So, we need to extract an x out of each piece.

f(x) = x^2 - 2x

f(x) = x(x - 2)

This will give you the fully factored form for this equation.

f(x) = x^2 - 2x ← Factor out a common factor in each, which is a x

= x(x - 2)

And there you go!

n=9

step-by-step explanation:

7 times a number = 7n

decreased by 13 = 7n-13

same as is =

5 times the number = 5n

increased by 5 = 5n+5

7n-13 = 5n+5

2n=18

n=9

answer:

given the linear inequality :

add 2y to both sides we get;

simplify:

add 12 to both sides of an equation;

simplify:

divide both sides by 2 we get;

or

the related equation for the inequality equation [1] is;

y-intercepts defined as the graph crosses the y-axis.

substitute x =0 in [2] to solve for y;

y = 6

x-intercepts defined as the graph crosses the x-axis.

substitute value y = 0 to solve for x;

subtract 6 from both sides we get

multiply both sides by 2 we get;

or

x = -12

now, plot these point (0, 6) and (-12, 0) on graph as shown below and shade the graph below the solid line.
